When
asked by reporters whether to expect any arrivals before the transfer
deadline, the Frenchman replied: "I hope we have something to tell you."

The
64-year-old was speaking after the club's 2-2 draw with Southampton, a
result that could see them slip to third place in the Premier League
should both Manchester City and Chelsea win on Wednesday.

However, Wenger was still satisfied with a point in a hard-fought game which, at one stage, they looked like they could lose.

"They
have difficult games as well and we took at least a point," he
reasoned. "It's not enough but considering the situation at half-time
[Arsenal were 1-0 down], we have to be content with it.

"I don't
want to look for any excuses: they played at higher pace. In the first
half we didn't play well. In the second half it was a very good football
game. We've shown character and resilience."
